DRINKING WATER CASE STUDIES AND WHITE PAPERS

• Groundwater Treatment Pilot Test Program Proves Successful In California (Loprest)

  Iron, manganese, arsenic and hydrogen sulfide are indigenous to numerous groundwater aquifers. With the exception of arsenic, these constituents are more prevalent in deeper aquifers that are devoid of dissolved oxygen. This report summarizes the results and conclusions of a groundwater treatment pilot test program. 

• How To Benefit From Greater Transparency To Customers

  Being more proactive in sharing utility operational insights with customers can pay dividends in terms of promoting efficiency and elevating customer satisfaction. It can also prepare utilities to respond more effectively to sudden or drastic disruptions of standard operations, such as droughts, floods, wildfires, or health emergencies. Here is how to establish and benefit from greater transparency.

• Managing Water Loss In Four Easy Steps

  A practical approach to detecting leaks and reducing non-revenue water.

  Water utilities are charged with an incredibly important task – providing safe and affordable water to communities in the face of aging infrastructure, funding gaps, and changing regulatory requirements. Specifically, when considering water loss control, leakage, and operational inefficiencies, costs may appear to be unaffordable.

• Historic Town Builds A “Smart” Water System With ORION® Cellular And BEACON® Software as a Service (SaaS)

  Paducah Water in Kentucky identified a need to upgrade its water system. The utility used a manual reading system for decades and investigated multiple solutions, including touch-read and drive-by systems. None of the solutions met its requirements. “In both of our attempts to deploy new solutions, we found the equipment and systems to be unreliable. We even had to stop our implementation efforts after having installed 1,000 new water meters,” said Bill Robertson, general manager of Paducah Water. “We had to keep looking.” Read the full case study to learn more.

• Using Ozone In Advanced Oxidation

  The advanced oxidation process removes contaminants in water and wastewater by oxidation through reactions with highly reactive hydroxyl radicals (^.OH). This chemical process uses ozone (O₃), hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), and/or UV light.

• Indirect Potable Reuse With UV-Oxidation - Big Spring, Texas

  In an effort to reduce reliance on dwindling surface and groundwater supplies in Texas, the Colorado River Municipal Water District constructed a new Raw Water Production Facility in Big Spring. 

• A New Way To Desalinate — Government Tested, Real-World Approved

  Developed by the Department of Defense, capacitive deionization (CDI) removes salt from water, while conventional methods remove water from salt. By Patrick Curran, CEO and founder, Atlantis Technologies

• Known For “Healing Waters,” Pagosa Springs Restores Its Potable Water System With Help From SolarBee® Mixers

  Located in the high desert plateau of southwestern Colorado, Pagosa Springs is famous for its geothermal hot springs, which draw visitors worldwide to soak in the mineral-rich water. The Utes called the sulfur springs “Pah-gosah,” meaning “healing waters.” You might say the town’s potable water system is healed now as well.

• Saudi Arabian Airport Successfully Uses Aquatech's Seawater Reverse Osmosis System India’s first Ultra Mega Power Project (UMPP) at Mundra in Coastal Gujarat, a 4,000 MW coal fired plant, is owned by Coastal Gujarat Power Limited (CGPL), a Tata Power group company.
• Insta-Valve 250 Provides Targeted Control Without System Shutdown

  Hydra-Stop’s solution allowed targeted control for planned maintenance and repair. MDC is a water utility that serves a densely populated region of Connecticut that also has a significant amount of commercial and industrial facilities. Like so many water utilities within the U.S., MDC has a century-old infrastructure which requires a proactive and preventative maintenance approach.
